With regard to the evidence advocating moisturising of the wound. I feel the benifit of the massage rquired to apply the cream has been overlooked. My father had such a wound on his lower leg and complained that the visiting nurse applied the cream with "gorrila hands", evidence of the vigorous nature she had employed to apply the cream.His wound healed in a few weeks however I wonder if were due to the increased circulation of blood and lymph fluid which did the trick?
